Why do people hate Ripple so much? The moment you made mention of this project they will instantly have a wicked laugh 😅 about it, like this project is just some joke, but how come its still a top altcoin if its that bad? How come such a project even win a war with SEC? I am curious, is there something thats not adding up here?

Haven't I heard the story of '' the fox and the grapes''?  ;D
But for me, anything in the crypto space has its opponents and fans. Not only XRP, but even BTC, ETH, BNB,... all have their own problems. Maybe the case of XRP is quite different as many people see the problem between it and the SEC, but I still see a profit from it, so I have no reason to hate.

When it was launched, it's one of the coins with the highest supply. This was during the time when coin supply matters a lot to crypto investors (less supply was preferred). I also remember someone saying XRP is more decentralized than BTC and I thought that was funny especially coming from Ripple CEO.

I wouldn't say it's a top altcoin for investment. People are still using it because of its fast confirmation and cheap fees.

They had some partnerships with some companies before for cross-border payments but that may change with the increasing popularity of CBDC.

AFAIK, there is no final decision on the case yet. Don't fall for their hype.

This is still alive caused by founders and team have billions of money worth of monero that have not yet dumped. that's why they are still working so hard against SEC. If SEC was winning the battle and team will not get their billions of money from this project.

That's a pretty interesting article to read even if that's an oldest article about XRP.

I most cases people might seem to might have lost hope in the project but without knowing that team is underway working to make sure resources individual have invested will not be wasted or despite the issues with SEC. it's actually a good project with good prospect so let us see the project as good one to buy and hold without undermining the current situation at hand.

Because of its centralization.  Xrp is mainly owned and distributed by ripple.  When crypto start "premined" coins were not generally liked.  Crypto was meant to be fairly decentralized by allowing anyone to mine or take part in the ecosystem.  Now nobody cares because greed and scammers have flooded into crypto.  Sad because back in the early days people who promoted these kind of activities were ousted.  Xrp is garbage.

IMO, I think some crypto people are not a fan of the coin XRP because it was centralized that's the most common argument that they always raised about the disadvantage of XRP as a centralized cryptocurrency, but for me, it doesn't really matter as long as the XRP has a value and then we can make some profit out of it then it's okay because for me I have only here in this space to earn profit out of my investment so I treat all cryptocurrencies as equal.  

Ripple (XRP) is actually a good coin and has good potential going forward.
it's just that ripple too often gets into trouble that makes investor holders hesitate to invest here.
actually all coins in crypto experience and have their own problems, but don't let that be a barrier because the potential of xrp is very extraordinary in my opinion.
for me the people who laugh at it are just people who are not happy to see xrp going forward because they have an amazing project if they can make it happen.
if people are observant xrp is the diamond of the future.

XRP team has very bad behavior. It's started with its old founder which was retire from the companies and he was selling all of his XRP to the fiat money and then so many XRP shillers were spamming everywhere, centralized coin that was blaming another coin.
I remember when so many XRP army were spreading non sense thing if that centralized coin will be replace ethereum and bitcoin. The golden days for the XRP already passed and it seems like that if this coin will not go up to the top 3 anymore without big pump from XRP whales.

although there are many who hate XRP but there are also a lot of XRP holders, the XRP community is big,
it even exceeds DOGE I think, you can see the supply circulation on coinmarketcap and marketcap XRP is still in the top 10 coinmarketcap,
that means there are still many holders who believe and buy XRP on the exchange, yes I myself also like XRP and I still hold it even though many laugh at it

for example, I am a little skeptical about this project, because the network is centralized, there are problems with the SEC and I often hear that the developers themselves regularly sell coins worth millions of dollars, thereby drowning the coin rate. by the way, I once bought this coin at the highest cost when there was a wild hype, and immediately XRP broke the bottom, I regretted it for a long time, this is also one of the distrust factors.

The thing is this, no user here can state categorically the reason why, and every individual investor/trader has their preference when it comes to coins/projects they choose. I for one personally do not use nor invest in XRP, but from my research i would not call it a top altcoin like you said above. But just giving it a little thought, people would prolly not fancy it that much right now majorly cause of its ongoing legal tussle with the SEC, and it is quite understandable. Having said that, you really should not be too worried about the opinion of others when it comes to crypto coins/projects, just do your own research about the project and draw up your own conclusions.

I remember when this coin is battling against another coin. it's a funny war to see that when XRP fans are attacking another community. That time is like the massive army that used by XRP. For me the thing that makes people hate XRP is the premined was so big and the team aka developers of this coin is also greedy as they were always selling their bags when their tokens will be unlocked from the vesting period. That's how people were hating to the XRP. it's started with it.

This might be the reason why most users of it laughing when someone talk about investing Ripple. It's a stable coin so no matter how much you want this coin to pump they will always get back to its normal price and who's behind it probably gaining more than you do who uses their coins. It's not decentralized unlike Bitcoin so there's no way you can rely on this coin just like Bitcoin, it's better to put your investment to Bitcoin but only use this if you want to get cheaper fees on exchange.

It's caused by this was a centralized banker coin. Ripple didn't even care with the community but this was only developing for the banker. This coin is actually centralized coin with the vision to make its team become even richer from selling the tech to the bankers. I do remember some banks have ever bought the tech from the ripple and this has no contribution to the crypto ecosystem. Very big premined coin. This called as a banker coin by crypto community

I care about usage and this coin (XRP) is one on my list with most usage rather than other coins. Even against Bitcoin for that is an asset for me that is meant to be kept.
Where did you find the "too much hate" thing? If I were you I'll take it as a positive thing for it means it can be one of the best. The same with what they do with Bitcoin attacking it left and right without even proof to back it up or knowledge about it. It's fun having a competitor and I think they want to bring XRP down so they can reign the centralized market.

so far i dont see any utility that developt in this project, and also no ecosystem builded here. i dont know why alot said as good project, or it caused that alot finance company back them? but personally if ripple have no problem with SEC maybe since few year ago its price could reach above 5$ , community very strong and most of them still put big hope they will win againts SEC.

For me, the reason of XRP hate is based on their promises and dates of fulfilment. When I first came to cryptocurrency, Ripple was introduced to me as a substitution or addition to banking transaction system. It was promised that Ripple cheap and fast payments will push out expensive SWIFT system from banking sector, and would be cheap alternative to SEPA. It was 2017, when Ripple was heavily promoted. We are not in 2022, and hardly part of promises are fulfilled. Compared to other altcoins, Ripple barely was closed to ATH. Since 2018, nearly everyone updated ATH, while Ripple is trailing behind.

There are several cases that make them the subject of discussion. actually not hate but rather to avoid in my opinion.
Their long-lasting cases have not yet come to an end and this makes them bored because it takes so many episodes to see their cases.
But I still feel they are good enough to make a profit there because as long as they are still shaken then the ups and downs are quite significant and good enough for me to be there for the short term

Ripple is actually a very good altcoin, if you believe in this project do not listen to what others are saying, Ripple has a higher chance of surviving and also its a good alternative to digital payment, in future surprises will occur, it won't kill you if you buy just 100$ of XRP and hold.

Beside the already known accusation of xrp being a centralize project working with banks (something that is the opposite of true crypto) and not very transparent with the overall conduct of the project I don't think am aware of any other season why people hate the project just by mentioning the name.
I don't understand it as well, because I also never invested in this project base on this community dislike, xrp is not only the centralize project in the space but for some reason best known to the crypto community, it is the most hate.

I think Ripple is a good coin and good and quality so it has a high potential for its good, it's just that in ripples there are often problems that can cause investors to be a little hesitant to invest in ripples, there may be a lot of people laughing This XRP coin is because they are less observant and do not understand what XRP is, only people who like it can understand how good and bad XRP is, in my personal opinion, XRP is a good coin.

although a while ago there was chaos in the XRP team, so most people who are in cryptocurrency said the XRP team has bad behavior, because they sold all their XRP and exchanged to FIAT, and made some people hate it, but even so, XRP has a very large community. and now XRP is in the top 10 best altcoins and has high quality and is in the sixth position of the ten altcoins, and maybe there are other problems with this XRP coin, I also don't understand its development at this time.

It is the first centralized shitcoin which pretends to be a crypto currency. It is a banksters scam. For years, they managed to stay at the top of CMC and there are lots of rumors going around like how they bribed the site/exchange owners etc... In the end they managed to get this premined shitcoin listed on various exchanges. Their whole marketcap is a big lie.

The first centralized banker coin that keeps denying if this coin was not a security. How harsh the ripple co founder that kept denied if ripple was not a security coin. This coin is having so many haters. So many bad things have been done by the ripple community.
Calling this as a shit coin is good enough as it's also suitable for ripple coin. I don't know what those people think about this coin especially for ripple supporters that keep support this coin.
How garbage this coin is.  ;D

I don't hate Ripple but I use Ripple just for profit.
I do not think too much about usage or else because I am only concerned with how to make as much profit as I can.
So far, Ripple is going as usual and although the price hasn't gone as high as before, I feel it will start to increase in the future.
So as long as Ripple is still profitable for me, I'm still going to use it.

Because it stands for everything crypto anarchists were against in the first place, and centralization doesn't help their case. I don't hate it but i can't see anything revolutionary in their tech. It's basically only for micro transactions with low fees. That's not even tiny bit interesting to me.

You are right that ripple have lots of haters maybe more than other altcoins and bitcoin have. Bitcoin have been criticized alot of times and maybe would have been hated more above all coins because it is the first coin that was called bubble, if not that it is decentralised. So ripple among other allegation is centralised and have been criticized for denying so much allegation including being a security coin. It has been alleged for manipulation also.

Its centralized and control all the supply but still not stable which means it is working same as other cryptocurrencies in terms of volatility, so people don't really care about the centralisation and keep trading in all the centralized exchanges which makes the team rich so they keep being at the top but still its not really enough for long term they may get replaced at anytime.

Strange that they won SEC. I think most hate comes from the idea that this is a centralized token.

Base on the comments was that, every time billions of XRP is unlocked, the team always dumps it to buy demand. The team had tried promoting this token for a very long time as means of covering up this information and then make people believe its going to be the one that banks will be using. I use to trade XRP in the past accumulating it but when the price had not hit ATH again after 2017, its not encouraging anymore.

Bitcoin and therefore the crypto space as a whole because of the idea that financial power should not be solely in the hands of the governments and the central banks but in the hand of the people in order to freely transfer wealth between different countries and continents without any limitation and a third party or an authority involved. The problem witih XRP is that it is highly centralized and that it also wants to be centralized. I mean in realitiy a lot of crypto projects are kinda centralized because a lot of coins are held by only a few big whales that could manipulate the whole project if they want to, but XRP is even worse than that.

Ripple (XRP) is actually a project that has helped in solving some cross border challenges as regards payment across the globe and it is one of the fastest means of payment with a low transaction fees. Coupled with the fact that it hard a long pending ligation with the securities and exchange commission and came out with a fantastic reputation in the crypto space and as you can see it is amongst the top coins

Only a fool will do what people want them to do, there are many projects that did so well even after all the hates from investors and other projects, here are few

1. Shiba inu
2. Ripple
3. Hex

All these projects did so well even after all the rambling that they are scam and shitcoins, do not listen to people and watch yourself elevates.

Actually it disappointed those early investor which though it will be next Bitcoin but it does not worked well and does not give whales the profit they expected.
Many Projects spikes so much in front of XRP investor and they just holding Xrp. I think it's not bad Project but it will take time to recover.

Nah, they are still shitcoins which is brought by the hype but if there's no hype on those coins I wonder where they should be right now on the list. This is just no different from the dogecoin memecoin that most people would do the hype to create a FOMO but I'm not buying it. Although, if you are great at your work on how to play with their market maybe you could earn some fortune but for some it's just unfortunate. There are worthy coins to be invested out there compared to these ones.

That is basically all there is to it. I mean I have been in crypto for 9 years now and never owned a single XRP in my life, why? Only because of the reason you already mentioned. If something is so centralized that they are saying "use our coins so that we could make money from companies" type of deal, then we shouldn't even be considering them legit.

We are talking about a scam project that scams people so greatly that people are not even aware that they are getting scammed. Honestly, I would never own any XRP but I have to congratulate XRP creators, they have done something that nobody else achieved so far, turning a scam into a long term real project.

I haven't hated XRP because it helps me a lot when I was getting a small number of rewards from bounties. Back then I was having a hard time transacting my small amount of ETH and BTC to local exchanges because of the high fees, thankfully, I managed to convert it to XRP before sending it to local exchanges which saved me lots of money and I also find it convenient and easy to use because of its fast sending transaction, unlike the other blockchain network which most of the time are delayed.

honestly I think the hate that revolves around ripple is always regarding how ripple isn’t your ideal altcoins and it’s rather centralized nature that of course could either be an advantage and disadvantage
based from the ones that invested in the altcoins.
this hate that are being lashed against ripple has been existed since ages ago I think that it’s already normal that many of traders here just choose avoiding ripple at all costs, I rarely see any traders here that choose
ripple as one of their investment option because there are honestly so many better investment out there, like matic and the likes, also the fact that ripple has been facing some big issues in these recent years adds
the more reason in avoiding it.

 In my opinion Ripple Coin is generally fairly good Altcoin. If it is true that Ripple is not good then you will not listen to anyone because if you want to trade or hold it then do it with your own conscience and wisdom. I would say that coins up to the top 500 in cryptocurrency are all good. And if you look at coinmarketcap, you can see that XRP is in the top 6 position.

I do not like this coin because it is not a cryptocurrency but a new centralized payment system. I am tired of following the courts and scandals, as well as the manipulation of the price of the coin against the backdrop of various events. I prefer not to mess with centralized projects.

many hate ripple for certain reasons such as SEC issues which are very clearly read by the public, but ripple's prestige only decreases for a moment when the news about rippel and the SEC is hot, but with a good community XRP still survives and trading volume is still stable

I value coin/XRP not because of its price, I'd value a thing because it was important. Like having XRP available on the market, it gives me an option to lessen the cost of every transaction I made. However, some people never appreciate this and even have negatives views as they don't even try to use this, they just only speculate.

Yet, this never makes XRP fall. Just look at, for many years this became an issue to the SEC - Ripple (XRP) but never have the time that this project been down to the ground, it still remains on its rank and market position because many people still have the trust and make use of this project. In fact, I admit that I'm using this when doing some exchanges transfers because of its small fee.

Yes, that's right, for a trader we don't need to hate certain coins because the most important thing for us is to be able to profit from them, I personally am still trading with XRP coins even though this coin can't give me a bigger return but I'm still optimistic that the XRP coin could have a better price in the future, especially since the problem with the SEC has now been resolved and won by XRP.

I am not aware about the hate on XRP but more hate on the meme coins, but maybe the reason why they hate XRP is that the price of the XRP doesn't really change much this past few years I think the highest it get is around $3 and now the price rangers from $0.7-$1 unlike other coins including meme coins that really pumps back then.

There's hate for bitcoin and others too.

Do not think that it's only XRP that's being hate in the market. Because even before XRP has come, bitcoin has been bashed for so long and even thought of it as dead for hundred times.

Well, I've seen it on XRP but it's no longer there I guess and the hate was transferred to another type of project for which is hyped today.

I wonder why these so-called shitcoins are doing better then, not all altcoins are shitcoins and not all meme coins are worthless, in the crypto world nothing is impossible, I am not here to hold an altcoin just because its a top altcoin, I am here to make money out of any coin, either shit or not I care less.

With all the negative thoughts about xrp by other people, I am using this coin on withdrawals. Whenever I wanted to cash out, I choose the fastest and cheapest, xrp is one and it is listed on the local wallet I am using. This coin have been a huge help for me escaping eth gas fees.

I used to hate XRP due to its political nature, but when I used it, I hated it less. I can say it is on the boundary but I wouldn't hold this one.  I only like it as an option to move my fund from one exchange to another due to its cheaper fee and very fast confirmation.


Same here.

Yeah but this time you have so many choices in the market that can be used as subtitution for ethereum fees. So many new tokens in the market like solana, polygon and many more available to be used to escape from the huge gas fees on ethereum blockchain.These days using binance smartchain is more than enough to cover anything that becomes the problem for someone to withdraw from ethereum blockchain. People are aware about this and they are not using ripple anymore to avoid the gas fees on ethereum blockchain.

I would not say that many now hate Ripple or have a negative attitude towards this coin. On this forum, there was a negative attitude towards Ripple in 2017-2018, but then it gradually began to change. This was mainly due to the centralized nature of this coin, as well as its backing by the banking system. But the population of different countries used it because of the low price, small commissions and fast transactions. In some countries, transactions in Ripple outnumbered all other cryptocurrencies in volume.
The SEC lawsuit against the two leaders of Ripple Labs cannot affect the coin itself, since it only refers to the facts of abuse by these officials.

The truth is that I don't see any point in hating XRP, I have been present at some crypto conferences and there are many people who not only hate meme coins but also put them as the worst of all inventions, in fact many people believe and I I also think that the king of all meme coins is Doge, that something else that has the support of Elon Musk is a unique luck, however when observing everything that has to do with DOGE it is a classic, it is like seeing the king of the pump and the dump. For now, Doge should not be seen as a bad currency or as a bad protagonist, I think that market speculators will see the opportunity with Doge to win with his movements, I think that is the secret of everything.

The idea of the project was not really that bad, but the problems occur when the High People of Ripple left the company and decided to just dump all his xrp. It prove two things, first the Ripple project is not really a decentralize network, since most of the coins is held by their elite, and second the team behind ripple never has any good intention with their project.

Most hates on meme coins comes from most old crypto investors who believe that meme coins shouldn't have made it this far since everyone believes that real utility is what makes a project a better choice, the success of shiba inu for example was so shocking because many believe it will fail.

Because the owner of xrp can sell anytime they want. Do you want getting dumped on? I mean they own majority of the xrp, and if they want they can pump it also, same goes to dump it. Im not sure if the top holder now is not from the team but I am sure it still them who holds the massive xrp. Its not that I totally hate it, for me using xrp is a gift when it comes to transactions sincr its super fast and very low fee. Only the investment part of xrp which i dont like cause Im sure other tokens or coins can be more valuable than them.

If XRP is a decentralized project like Bitcoin everyone will love the project, those who hate XRP are not to be blamed because they are seeing XRP as a threat to what Bitcoin is trying to achieve, everything that Bitcoin is trying to be XRP is the opposite, there is a saying that if you can't beat them you join them.

i think it's just based on your views coz i don't see any feedbacks from some people that laughing about XRP(ripple) to be honest, except you.
And for me yes the rank itself in the market can really tell how good it is, not the current situation coz obviously we are still on bearish trend.  So it's up to us know if we cannot understand the situation of the market.

The Ripple project was embroiled in a serious scandal in 2020, which led to litigation and a fall in the price of the cryptocurrency. The pressure from the SEC has had a negative impact on the cryptocurrency itself. When compared to other tokens, XRP failed to renew its high in 2021, although the market as a whole was growing. I think the SEC problems will be solved and in the next bull cycle XRP will have the opportunity to update ATH, so I keep a small amount of coins in my wallet.

Include me as well :D I mean it is horrible because I ran away from centralization of the government over fiat and you are telling me that I should be buying a token that is not even used as the transaction process for a company that uses another network to move money around for companies using our power?

I am sorry but that is not what I will be part of, whatever they do, let them do it themselves and make their profits and I am not going to be part of it. Makes no sense to me to invest into something like that, I am fine with my bitcoin and ethereum and a few other coins that I hold, some of them could be as bad as XRP but at least they are not taking advantage of me.

I don't think that so many people hate XRP like you said because it is still traded on top exchanges and the volume is still huge compared to most other Altcoins, however because of the recent sluggish price movements it is not my top choice for investment.

Their ongoing case with SEC also make it risky to invest in because if the SEC wins, one can lose his/her money easily.

In the case of XRP and the SEC, it seems to have made XRP more popular and XRP enjoyed the benefits. although it will probably be like you said, if the court wins the SEC, it will clearly affect, and it is possible that those who invest there will experience a loss of funds. but has XRP not thought that far? it is certain that they also do not want their investors to experience what they fear at this time.

Broadly speaking, it is clear that XRP is still very attractive to investors because if you look at the current price at $0.5, it is certainly not bad and does not fall freely and is still at a reasonable price and will always be possible to increase. but if many are hesitant to invest in XRP it is normal because of the fear of losing.

I don't think most popular XRP after cases with SEC Commission give good effect because XRP have drop to lower price after ever reach higher price later when winning issues with SEC Commission. I think XRP still not winning yet totally with SEC Commission until right now because some time this issues keep up to public. Many investor losing trust with XRP after long time can't solve problem with SEC Commission and they looks with developer not serious how to make investor keep trusted with developer.

There’s still no final resolution about their SEC case as far as I know and maybe this is one of the reason why many people hate this platform aside from being centralized, there are still few who can’t move on about this issues but the good thing here is that, XRP is still able to maintain its position and still considered as one of the top altcoins. This SEC issues will be a big one if the result in favor XRP, so better to keep updated with regards to this case, most probably people will react on this.

It could be but I don't weigh this much and become a reason to hate XRP which in fact, this project is cost-efficient as the transaction fee is very cheap. And for how many years that this becomes an issue to them but never see the SEC urge them to stop their operation. However, despite this thing, XRP remain one of the top altcoins in the market which mean that many people are still using and trusting this project more than those who distrust and hate it.

in the past people had a strange thought that they had to rush to buy low priced altcoins, ripple had a low price so it was something that attracted a lot of people's attention, a lot of people bought ripple thinking that ripple would have a very high price and when this altcoin reached $3 people exploded on the internet, it was visible as in tradingview people just wanted to know to post charts with very optimistic predictions of ripple, then disaster came, the entire crypto market crashed, and ripple dropped to $0.50, but strange that after the entire crypto market recovered, ripple did not go back to 3$, years passed and nothing, and with time people started to hate this altcoin


well on this subject it is hard to comment

I've been using XRP for my withdrawals going into our local wallet that can easily be converted into a fiat money and so far, XRP has been the cheapest option and I don't really understand as well why there's so much hate for XRP. Their problem is still on-going though without a final resolution yet and maybe people are just being careful and don't want to deal with XRP that much as long as there's still a pending case, I don't know why it took long for that case but hopefully XRP can defend the accusation and remain in good operation.

Ripple itself isn't a proper cryptocurrency and is not fully decentralised. That explains the wicked laugh you hear. But then I think it has a good future because of its alliance and backing, and of course the love from the community

This being centralised people find it to be highly manipulative. But, this hasn't been done so by the authorities. When we talk about the growth of XRP, it is quite good with more number of transactions and partnering taking place with the banking firms. So, the future is good as it have its own utility to support the real world needs.

The court itself who will be determined the future of ripple and it's not us. if ripple will be categorized as security token and that's the end for ripple token. In my opinion that's a common thing to see that if a token like ripple have haters or lovers.
I don't even remember which community you refferring at but i don't even think that's exist right now. I do remember so many shillers and bots paid by ripple.

Yes what u said is very true,  ;D ;D every crypto in fact have their own opponent and fans i know little bit about XRP that not being transparent and sold to big companies and offcourse SEC will chase againt them. but look at now the XRP itself still in the top 10 of marketcap if we remove the stablecoin xrp is still top 5

and offcourse you know the conspiracy about USDT and other thing and welcome to crypto

I don't really hate with XRP and ever earn much profit trough buy XRP on lower price and hold almost few months later price pump drastically and success sold, but when getting cases with SEC Commission I have quit from investing with XRP coins because I think looks have been over when any coin get problem with SEC Commission impact price drop. Although developer of XRP claimed they are the winner cases against with SEC Commission I don't think with XRP price can reach all time high ever success reach on higher price until $4.

The hate for ripple and some other key projects like the internet computer are manufactured by insiders who don't want you do make it or by people who are salty that other cryptos mooned in price before their investments did.

This is what I really observe, they are really manipulative, everyone can easily control the price of XRP, even though their project is at the top tier, but with its centralized nature, it is easier for everyone with high capital to control it. In fact, some of the news circulating about xrp is very visible that news about regulations makes its price easy to manipulate.

people hate coins because the price of the coin they invest goes down so they are disappointed and in the end they hate the alcoin but if the coin they invest in increases the price then they are happy and happy they will not hate the coin.

I guess people hate matic due to way it's being centralised rather than being in a decentralized form that blockchain technology is being built for, and probably a little beef with the owner, but I think that the Fud is down, the only problem is see with xrp is just the centralised issue
